What am I doing wrong? is the server depreciated? or not working like the document describes it? Thanks again for any help. Below is my code
import httplib import base64 import urllib USER='user' PASS='pass' url = 'http://gateway.messenger.hotmail.com/gateway/gateway.dll?Action=open&Server=NS&IP=messenger.hotmail.com' values = 'VER 5 MSNP8 CVR0\r\n' user_pass = base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % (urllib.unquote(USER),urllib.unquote(PASS))) authheader = "Basic %s" % user_pass proxy_authorization='Proxy-authorization: Basic '+user_pass+'\r\n' conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("proxy.com.au", 8080) conn.connect() conn.putrequest("POST", url) conn.putheader('Accept','*/*') conn.putheader('Accept-Language','en-us') conn.putheader('Accept-Encoding','gzip, deflate') conn.putheader('User-agent','MSMSGS') conn.putheader('Host','gateway.messenger.hotmail.com') conn.putheader('Proxy-Connection','Keep-Alive') conn.putheader('Pragma','no-cache') conn.putheader('Content-Type','application/x-msn-messenger') conn.putheader('content-length',str(len(values))) conn.putheader('Proxy-authorization',authheader) conn.endheaders() conn.send(values) r = conn.getresponse() print r.status, r.reason print r.msg print r.read() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
